Pursuant to Section 24-33.5-1203.5, C.R.S., the Director of the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control shall promulgate rules as necessary to carry out the duties of the Division of Fire Prevention and Control. |
| Description of Subjects/Issues |
First, the rule change addresses deficiencies identified in Article 3 and 10.2.1 of the rule. Specifically, Article 3 is amended to meet the requirements of C.R.S. section 24-4-103 (12.5)(a)(IV) regarding incorporation of another document, standard, or code by reference into administrative rules, and section 10.2.1 is amended to replace each instance of “certified fire inspectors” with the correct term “Qualified Fire Inspectors” as defined in C.R.S. Section 24-33.5-1202 (2.5).
Second, this rule change removes direct references to adopted Codes and Standards under Article 3 and replace it with a reference to 8 CCR 1507-101 (BUILDING AND FIRE CODE ADOPTION AND CERTIFICATION OF INSPECTORS FOR FIRE & LIFE SAFETY PROGRAMS ADMINISTERED BY THE STATE OF COLORADO), which is a consolidation of all Codes and Standards referenced in the rules promulgated for the fire and life safety programs administered by DFPC.
Third, this rule change removes rules and procedures for certifying fire inspectors and plan reviewers under Article 10 and replace it with a reference to 8 CCR 1507-101 (BUILDING AND FIRE CODE ADOPTION AND CERTIFICATION OF INSPECTORS FOR FIRE & LIFE SAFETY PROGRAMS ADMINISTERED BY THE STATE OF COLORADO), which is a consolidation of all inspector certifications referenced in the rules promulgated for the fire and life safety programs administered by DFPC. |
